Splintered memories like busted window glass
Fragments of happiness rising up like deadly gas
It disappated like the smoke from the cigarette hanging from your scarlet lips
Faith hung upon your dress and with every step it rips
Lightning bolts down from the ceiling and lightens every wrong
Of the place you held a secret for far too long
It reveals your broken heart still beating on the floor
And with careful steps you swollow the key and lock the door
You crawl up in the corner to watch the days go by
Whispering promises and with every word you lie
Becoming a dirty tainted vessel of who you used to be
And with a small sad smile you remember me
Diamond tears against your grimy cheeks
You search for the glass memory of me for weeks
Hovering it about your wrist you listen to the sound
Of my voice inside your head speaking of the hope u never found
Rising slowly from the wreckage of your strife
You threw your soul upon the table and bid goodbye your life
My dark angel with tattered wings who never learned to fly
Forever lost within those hidden walls until the day she died
